OP, you have no idea how to properly start and sustain a thread on /lit/. You have to strategically samefag for at least the first 10-20 posts. At the very least you respond to every post. You can even shitpost if you like.

Not that one but you got Kenzaburo Oe right.

>>4478351
Oh, right, I always mix those 2 up, I don't know why (A Personal Matter is the correct answer), .

It's probably because I picture a deformed retarded baby's "silent cry"; and on the other hand, a guy dealing with his brother and wife' story about a place where his family played a big part (thus, "a personal matter").

>>Before I can drink myself to a relieving death my fam shoves me into a sanitarium

The diaries stuff specially.

>>4477342
Candide ou l'Optimisme

>>4478406 is me, and I wrote >>4477568

it is like this. He repeatedly claims that he will stop drinking, but never does. His family and flatfish save him then by putting him in the sanitarium.

His diaries are kept by this one barmaid, and later on the writer of the pro- and epilogue finds them - he describes the three pictures of yozo at the beginning.

>some guy

>being wrong

do you into colloquialism?

>A "college" in the US formally denotes a constituent part of a university, but in popular usage, the word "college" is the generic term for any post-secondary undergraduate education. Americans go to "college" after high school, regardless of whether the specific institution is formally a college or a university.

>us we us we
>hey look at this cool box thing
>I me I me

So what you're saying is that they're not actually synonyms, and you're wrong.

>>A kid is trained by his mother to be a member of this exclusive order, and also trained by his father to take over the family business.
>>His father has to move his business, so the kid and mother have to go along.
>>Kid is pretty good at interacting with the locals.
>>Hostile takeover happens. Dad loses business and is killed. Kid has to flee from the house with his mother.
>>Locals like the kid and his mother so they take him in.
>>Kid ends up leading the locals and his mother tells them the secrets of her exclusive order to help everything along.
>>Kid starts hostile takeover against the people who did the same to his father.
>>Kid lures his enemy's boss into the fight and hostile-takeovers the boss's business too.
